Thanks, Mr. Bobro. This is the sort of thing I wanted to hear, music where some thought went into it. Can you post what you gave as a description?

You're welcome and thanks, Mr. Smith. In reference to your previous post, I also most emphatically prefer to make my own judgements- I was just describing how things seem to work, in my experience, not how they necessarily should be.

I don't remember exactly what I wrote, but the piece is in 2:3:7:13
Just Intonation, seventeen tones of a larger tetrachordal system, very roughly. In effect there are some small commas tempered out, not literally but in the sense that intervals differing from each other by
these commas are functionally equivalent, so technically they could
be tempered out with no other effect than small coloristic changes, and are tempered out in notation.

The tuning is "bronzepunk", as the tetrachords can all be described in
ancient or medieval ways, but the tune, to my ears, came out with a
1930's kind of flavor to it.

about 17-equal
